To the traffic engineer working at Fremont & Mowry today:

Please don’t attach a linksys ap with default settings hubbed to the WAN connection of the controller for your red-light cameras. Not only is it just useless when you’re working on it from about 20 feet away, it’s just dumb.

From just looking into the box, I found out that the redflex camera Fremont uses are TCP/IP over Ethernet connected using an Alcatel DSL modem to somewhere. At least I did see a Cisco 1600 in there, so I’m hoping there’s at least some kind of encrypted VPN action going on.
